The site is a metasearch engine, integrating data from several sources, including the U.S. Library of Congress API, the Amazon.com database of books, and ISBNdb.com. OttoBib accepts ISBNs with either 10 or 13 digits. BackgroundOttoBib.com was started as a hobby project in 2006 by Jonathan Otto, a then 4th year undergraduate at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse, USA.[2] It was originally called "That's Crazy Hot!" but the name was quickly changed to OttoBib because the original title was "not suitable for the academic environment and consequently won't take off."[3] The original inspiration for the site came from Seth Godin's January 3, 2006 blog post on "Stuck Systems", where he wrote:
FunctionalityOttoBib.com performs the two basic functions outlined. Marcus P. Zillman, an Internet information retrieval consultant and speaker said "this website is the start of a new paradigm of citing sources."[5] Jason Clarke, a writer and web developer, said OttoBib is a "tool that solves a simple problem in a simple manner."[6] DevelopmentsIn January 2007, OttoBib introduced a REST interface to allow a citation to be generated from a URL that contains the ISBN. For example, {{ISBN|0-19-511797-2}} can be used in the URL: to display Patterson, J., (1997). Grand Expectations. Oxford Oxfordshire: Oxford University Press. In February 2007, OttoBib introduced the ability to request citations in BibTeX and Wikipedia {{tl|cite book}} formats. See also
